Stewardship

Regarding Stewardship…
“Christian stewardship begins with the understanding that all we have is God’s (Psalm 24:1) and that “we brought nothing in to the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world” (1 Timothy 6:7)

Since all we have is God’s, we should use it for His purpose. God’s purpose for us is expressed in the various vocations, or callings, that we have. So, for example, a father and mother use their income to feed, clothe, and protect their children; all of us as citizens use part of our income to pay our taxes faithfully. Each vocation makes a claim on each part of our lives, including our income.”
